Saw some you arguing. Stupider is like who/whom He is stupid. He is even more stupid. He is stupider.
Who is the stupid one. Whom is the stupid one.
Most people use who even though it is incorrect, but because so many people use it, we start to assume it is proper. Stupider is becoming a part of our language, because we make it. rip language yolo swag idiots running around |

Stupider isn't a legitimate word.
Similar to funner, gotta, imma, or watcha. |

| if a dictionary has it, it's because it's grammatically correct. |

| "Stupider" and "stupidest" are still completely correct though, even if they are the long-term result of colloquialism. |

| The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, among others, recognizes "stupider" and "stupidest." Also, it is not comparable to the grammatical faux pas "funner." It is, however, comparable to the grammatically sound "funnier," which is a word. |

Okay. Let me just settle this.
went on Microsoft word, wrote: Stupider is a word.
No green lines.... It's grammatically correct! |

Stupider may be word, but so is ain't, and Microsoft picks ain't up as grammatically correct even though ain't and stupider are not grammatically correct.
Your response is basically "OH MEH GERD, I WENT ON MICROSOFT WORD, A TOTALLY VALID SOURCE WITH A GOOD REPUTATION" |
